Do people actually want to meet others online?
Posted: 10/12/2004 12:21:10 PM
Here's my question? i noticed that there's tons of people in here looking for friendship, love, dates,etc. but i notice that alot of them just brush you away, even if you're been polite. why do people do that?

Being online allows you to make a decision without having to actually face the person in question. When they brush you off it means they don't like you, which is really as plainly as I can put it.

I tend to agree with you...I think that there are lots of people on this site, and others that are just playing, or killing time, and not really interested in a relationship. They are what gives internet personals a bad name.

In short I think alot of people are just playing games. I also find the most women set their standards way to high and then have the nerve to complain about not being able to find anyone.

Internet dating is like a blind date with a sneak preview. If you've been given the brush-off it's probably because they've decided that the sneak preview they've gotten is enough and don't want to go further. For whatever reason, they've decided they're not interested in taking things further. I'm a friendly sort and will chat with most people, but if I'm not interested in actually meeting you I let you know fairly quickly so as not to waste your time and to not lead you on. *shrugs* but that's just me. Then there are those who just want to have a little cyber fun. You take the good with the bad with internet dating.

If anyone is going by my way on holidays or whatever, I like meeting up for a coffee. Have done this a couple times. Even had one couple travelling through, and had them spend the night...saved hotel fees! lol! Great way to plan a trip huh? lol!

The only reason I even go to a forum of this type is because it is safe and I don't have to say anything about my personal life or respond to anyone who does not meet my critiria. I personally have had very nice experiences online. Not one person has been demeaning or nasty on this site. I have actually meet a person in person from this site and we hit it off great. The only thing bad was that he forgot to tell me he was married!!! Oh well, back to the fishing hole...there are still plenty of fish!!!
